Good grade ba wo! Though it is good for first impression but what really matters in this country of ours is connection. I have a friend with a third class in Accounting, he worked with Eco Bank then, now works at the Accountant General of the federation's office Abuja. Me I have a 2.1 Accounting, Chartered Accountant yet I am underemployed NOT unemployed! 3 Likes |

Absolutely yes, good grades will give u massive advantage in the competitive labour market but you must trust God very well, be very smart, have positive attitude towards life and reflect the good grades all over you in speech, reasoning and thinking. 2 Likes |

You lots are confusing reading to pass to cramming. Every student needs to read to pass to pass, cramming is a whole different ball game. |

Forget all this people here calling bill gates,mark zugerburg and the rest.if you can spend 4/5 yrs of your life doing something, I see no reason not getting the best out of that which you are doing. Why place your future in hopes/What people say when you can get. 2.1/1.1/2.2/3.1,come out and face the music.Don't follow this people,when you will be suffering cos of poor result,they wouldn't be there.Get the best out of school which in essence is good results, if that will guarantee you job,fantastic, if not you have nothing to lose 8 Likes 2 Shares |

pocohantas:You may go far in some aspect but u cant go as far as muhammed alli, malcom x, steve jobs et al who didn't even finish school not to talk of havn a good grade. We've laid to much emphasis on academics,certificate and good grades in NG and stil it aint gettin us anywhere. I wont stop sayn it academics has in no way added to the growth and development of Nigeria but instead it has givn birth to sets of people with no creativity nor innovation at all. Our Judiciary system is zero yet we av law as a course in our uni's,political system zero yet there's pol science also i can go on and on but i dont av time for being a nonentity to the society. 1 Like |

HenryQuest: So who told you those that bested you in grade cannot best you in "actual field or practical performance"? I don't know where people get this assumption that you cannot make a good grade and still be a performer. 2 Likes |

wacoj: I think it all depends on you! I repeat, it largely depends on you! Your third class guy may not necessarily have connection but might be so smart in spotting opportunities and striving to reach out and establish necessary contacts that could boost his chances of succeeding. I was not yet ACA when I started earning more than many chartered accountants, because I trusted God and was always prepared to take the accompanied risks. Also, you may be lacking in information: you need to connect with people who can give you information. For example, do you belong to the nearest ICAN district society in your state? Because the society members can give you valuable information about great job opportunities in their offices and this can land you a life changing job! Do you even know that ICAN has a job porter that companies looking for chartered accountants advertise vacancies on to pick candidates? Sometimes, we are the biggest enemy of ourselves! That is the truth! God will help us in Jesus Name. Amen. 1 Like |

Benita27: You may be wrong with that assertion. Acquiring good grades is fine but God matters most. I had a 3rd class. I finished my NYSC in November last year and today I have gotten something to do with nothing <100k per month in an NGO. So what can you say about that? It all depends on you about the direction you want your life to go. Nothing is strong enough to stop you; not even your grades. The point is that people are different, what works for me may not work for you because our faith in God are different. 2 Likes |

anonimi: Why didnt you cram and get 1st class if its that easy? Cramming means you have retentive memory which is very useful and you must have a level of understanding to be able to even cram in some courses. @op, its no guarantee but it gets you in the door. 2 Likes |

aumeehn:in all honesty good grades in Nigeria does not guarantee u a good job, because most of the so called well paying jobs are reserved for children of those with 'long legs' but first graduate with 1st class and 2.1 cuz it pays to b hardworking |

aumeehn: I graduated with 2.2 and i haven't been unemployed for more than 1 year, it's about what skill you have to offer, a job like Banking of course you will find it hard to scale if your grades were poor, but a practical skill will get you far, also what people fail to do is to engage into something after school regardless of pay, most just want a 400k job over-night, it doesn't work that way unless you are connected or favored by God. 1 Like |

samuelson06:A third class graduate in Nigeria with a job of above 100k monthly could only be come by by "man know man" or "God's grace" else, the kind suffer wey you go suffer to get reasonable job eeh!. Even the 2.1 graduates are finding it difficult to secure jobs. In a nutshell, grade matters inasmuch as we do more of favouritism in this part of the world. |

1wolex85: 100% Wrong, Cramming is just Garbage in garbage out (Data without processing) A Data is useless if information cannot be interpreted from it, if you don't understand it then it's a problem once you understand the underlying foundation of anything you won't need to cram infact you will find it easier to expland upon such knowledge, in the Software Dev field you need to understand what you are doing and why rather than just pouring out what you took in, doesn't work in the real world. 1 Like |

First class ooo! Second class ooo! Third class ooo! Even fourth class ooo!!! None of them makes you an important person to humanity. What makes you a rare gem is your ability to solve human problems. Get the ability, utilize it well and timely, and history will never forget you. But put your hope/trust in CGPA (ordinary paper work which can be maneovred) and limit your achievements and potentials in life. Paper qualification is not transferrable (once you breathe your last, that's all); hence we should rather go for those skills/knowledge that will live even when we are gone, striving to leave indelible footprint in the sands of time. Nigeria will start growing faster the very day we shift emphasis from paper qualifications to developing our human capacity. I had the so-called good grade though, but that's NOT what is differentiating me from my peers. 2 Likes |
